What They Liked The title in the red spooky font made the genre clear right from the beginning I like how there's a lot of dialogue, so the viewers know what's going on Cutting back and forth between different clips to help viewers know that whatever is happening is occurring at the same time I liked how the bible was incorporated to give the driver a reason to go back into the building. The shot of him running back was well executed, not too shaky or blurry. I llike how they cut back from the girl to the guy who was pulling up to meet her. I really liked the overall concept and storyline of the film. I also liked how "The Trip" was repeated multiple times throughout the opener.  I liked how the transitions and angles helped create a consistent/smooth flow and gave the viewer a sense of change of location/scenery. I also liked the selection of the bible for the item she forgot because when she gets caught cheating it brings in irony.  I liked the acting i...

The second time our group edited together we tried our best to go through each scene and make sure they were the right speed. Because our movie needed to emphasize certain scenes we put them in slow motion or even speeded them up. In the scene where Nick was running, we had to speed it up to create urgency. In the following scene this is an example of us editing Maddy walking into the airport. We slowed it down to emphasize the planes. This also made her walk look more dramatic and important.

The first thing we decided to do was put the clips in order, because when they downloaded to the computer they were all out of order. By going through and putting the clips in order it helped us remember back to the scenes filmed and what we were trying to accomplish. This led us to deleted unnecessary scenes or even duplicates that we found. This first day of editing was pretty much focused on the technical stuff. 

On the second day of filming my group and I decided to go to the Marco Island Airport and shoot the scenes of Maddy walking in. This is a picture of us pulling into the Marco Island Airport. In this picture you can see the setting which includes a small airport building and some small private planes. This is a close up picture of Maddy as she's walking into the airport. We thought it would be cool to have her walking in by the planes to really emphasize that she was at the airport.  Overall, this day of filming was very successful because we established the setting of where the majority of the film would be focused on.

On our first day of filming we decided to gather together and practice our scenes. We practiced among our different locations. During this we changed some of the scenes and even added in new characters. This is a photo of Nick, Maddy's husband, running into the airport because she forgot her bible in the car. We had to rework this scene so that it looked like he was in an extreme rush, to make sure she wasn't already on the plane. With this intensity it showed how passionate and even a little obsessive  Nick was towards Maddy. This is a photo of Nick making sure Maddy didn't forget her bible. This scene is very important because later in the plot when she gets caught cheating, its because she forgot her bible.
